The Utzon Stool is a captivating creative expression by acclaimed Danish architect Jørn Utzon. It exudes an extrovert playfulness in its fascinating appearance. It is a functional sculpture meticulously crafted from oiled solid beech, beech veneer, and beautiful brass detailing. While decorative in appearance, the stool is deceptively comfortable and stands as a testament to Utzon's rare ability to distil complex organic shapes into functional forms.

The Utzon Stool was designed during the same period as the Sydney Opera House and carries the same inspiration Utzon took from nature coupled with maritime influences from his childhood. The rounded shapes of the seven smooth seating elements echo the shapes of marine bollards and fenders seen in the harbours of his youth while the use of brass is a nod to maritime customs.

Jørn Oberg Utzon, AC, Hon. FAIA was a Danish architect, most notable for designing the Sydney Opera House in Australia. When it was declared a World Heritage Site on 28 June 2007, Utzon became only the second person to have received such recognition for one of his works during his lifetime. Other noteworthy works include Bagsværd Church near Copenhagen and the National Assembly Building in Kuwait. He also made important contributions to housing design, especially with his Kingo Houses near Helsingør.
